This is a public service record, not a voting record — and it cannot be one. Stamford's Board of Representatives has not minuted its votes the same way from year to year. Some meetings name every member who voted in favour. Others record a total and name only the members who abstained — one reads “APPROVED 33-1-4 (Reps. Berns, Sherwood, Stella & Strain abstained)”, which identifies four abstentions and not one of the thirty-three who voted yes. Of 1131 floor votes between 2022-01-03 to 2026-09-08, his own position is established by the minutes on 248. The remaining 883 cannot be attributed to him by any honest method, and no attempt has been made to guess: being present and unnamed does not establish a vote, because many items name no dissenters either. Every item below links to the source document and page, with the line that names him.

149 for · 86 against · 13 abstained. Each carries the verbatim line from the minutes. Move the cursor over any block: his name, the vote tally, the item code and the date light up — the four things you would use to find that line in the source document yourself.

Attendance

Present at roll call in 67 of the 73 meetings whose roll call could be read. Recorded absent or excused at 4, and at 2 more the minutes record him joining after the roll call was taken — counted separately, because arriving late is not the same as not turning up. 11 further meetings have no parsable roll call and are left out rather than assumed.

Background

Written from the 36 claims that could be confirmed against an independent public source. Claims that were stale, uncorroborated or contradicted were dropped — including an employer he no longer holds, an age taken from a 2021 questionnaire, and a committee list that four sources, two of them official, disagree on.

Amiel Goldberg has represented District 13 on Stamford's Board of Representatives since he was first elected in November 2021, taking 1,206 votes in a three-way race won alongside running mate Eric Morson (CT Secretary of the State results). He was re-elected in November 2025 with 1,169 votes — a figure reported by Patch, which the state's own results database does not yet carry (Patch). He also sits on the city's Water Pollution Control Authority as the Board's designee, in a second term running to 2029 (WPCA roster), and is a former member of the Board's Personnel and Redistricting committees. He is the endorsed Democratic candidate for the 149th House District in 2026, challenging Republican incumbent Tina Courpas (Greenwich Free Press); his committee is registered with the state and has been awarded a Citizens' Election Program grant (SEEC).

He spent roughly three decades in finance and risk: investment banking at UBS Securities, Chief Risk Officer at GE Asset Management, executive consultant at IBM Global Business Services, and heading a quantitative risk and liquidity platform in BNY Mellon's corporate treasury. He is now mostly retired and does contract consulting — note that the Board's own member page still lists BNY Mellon as his current occupation, which is out of date. He holds a B.S. in finance and management science from the University of South Carolina and an M.S. in financial risk management from the University of Connecticut (official biography; Greenwich Free Press).

He grew up in Columbia, South Carolina and has lived in Stamford's Westover neighbourhood since 2007. Outside elected office he has been vice president of Temple Sinai Stamford, vice president and treasurer of the United Jewish Federation of Stamford, Darien and New Canaan, a trustee of the Stamford Jewish Community Centre, and treasurer of the Stillmeadow School parent-faculty organisation (official biography).

In his own words

Statements sourced only to the candidate, his campaign, or his party. They are what he says rather than what the record shows, and are kept separate for that reason.
